Coronado Music and Art Foundation is proud toannounce ​the first annual Coronado Music Festival™!

​​Coronado Music Festival (CMF) is a FREE community and family friendly three-day musical event that will feature local, regional and national musicians and talent of all genres for the public to enjoy. Coronado has been focusing on creating an art culture with new installations of public art works, a community center art gallery, placement of public pianos as well as the Coronado Film Festival. For a community to be designated as a well-rounded art destination, a music festival is essential. The Coronado Music Festival is the first of its kind, and has already received community support and enthusiasm. Coronado Music Festival is a 501c3 nonprofit that will be supporting at risk youths through the education of music and the arts as well as provide needed supplies and musical instruments to the young artists. Emerald C Gallery, the CMF headquarters, will be offering art and music camps throughout the year for regional youth and young adults on a scholarship basis. Young musicians will have the opportunity to perform in the ongoing open mics held monthly at Emerald C Gallery (gallery currently has a baby grand piano and guitars). Coronado island will be vibrant with the sound of music. ​

Volunteer opportunities also available.​EVENT ORIGINS:The Coronado Music Festival’s origins derived from the monthly open mic events held at Emerald C Gallery. Due to the support and enthusiasm for music, it became evident that Coronado was in need of a festival to celebrate all genres of music. The cofounders of the music festival are all Coronado residents, local business owner and have children in the local school system thus are heavily invested in the community. The Coronado Music Festival founders are not an “outside entity” ensuring they are mindful of Coronado values, history and culture.
